Why is it Important to Monitor Children's Development?
Monitoring your child's lower limb and foot development is crucial for ensuring proper alignment as they grow. The way their feet and legs develop during childhood can have a lasting impact on their posture and overall alignment into adulthood. By closely tracking developmental milestones, we can help reduce the risk of future foot and lower limb problems.
Children’s feet are mostly made up of cartilage until around the age of 12, which means their bones are still growing and developing. Early detection of abnormalities in your child's feet, combined with timely intervention, can make a significant difference in improving alignment and preventing foot issues later in life.
Our podiatrists are highly trained in all areas of children’s podiatry and are experts at identifying and treating potential foot problems early. Depending on your child’s needs, we offer a range of treatment options to ensure their feet develop properly and they have a strong foundation for healthy walking and mobility.
